    Because it's also super-easy to take code from 2010 that wasn't intended to run on AWS or Azure and slap it on there.

    They had months to prepare.

    As a software engineer that has migrated legacy code to the cloud months may not have been enough time, especially while they were preparing for an entire expansion at the same time. I think I vaguely remember seeing Yoshi-P comment at some point that they actually spent some time trying to use cloud servers and it didn't work. Still something worth looking into for the future, but that ship has sailed for Endwalker unfortunately

    Yoshi P did say that.

    But why bother making sense when you can instead just talk out of your ass
